The Improvised Electronics Round Robin serves as a platform for tool builders, artists and engineers to experiment in a performance based environment. Our focus is on custom instruments for the creation of real-time sound and visuals. The Round Robin strives to maintain an open atmosphere dedicated to inventive performability and signal processing systems.

Performers are to play as solo instrumentalists with either audio, video, or audiovisual performance systems. Performers set up in a circle and play short interlocking sets in a clockwise fashion. After the initial round, each iteration of the Round Robin will feature a different theme that will slightly alter the structure of the previous session. This includes the introduction of a specific set of rule based systems or guest composer’s score.

This Improvised Electronics Round Robin will feature a game score by Hans Tammen.

Hans Tammen’s "Dark Circuits Light Orchestra" uses Earle Brown’s open form composition idea as a starting point to create a large multi-movement piece, performed by an ensemble of contemporary electronic instrument practices and visuals. Sound and visuals are treated as independent instruments, morphing from one entity to another, are juxtaposed, or put against each other in a crazed collision course of the eye & ear. Hans Tammen created long multi-movement pieces with large ensembles for over a decade, and examples of previous works can be seen here [https:]

For more information on the application visit our website: www.pilotenkueche.de. You can choose an individual period if you want.

PILOTENKUECHE is an Artist Residency Program based on group dynamic. Six-to-eight artists each work on an individual project during a three-to-four month period at the Spinnerei in Leipzig, working in their own area within the 250 m2 communal loft hall. How the artist uses their time and space and opportunities in the Spinnerei are their choice. The communal working space can be used 24-hours a day.

The PILOTENKUECHE philosophy is focused on an interest of exchange and kinetic dialogue about art ideas, approaches and methods practiced in other places and from other individuals. We are fascinated with how they come into practice in the communal working space at the Spinnerei. Pilotenkueche wishes to provide our participants with the experience of accomplishing something as a group; and, moreover, in experimenting with new forms of cooperation vital in fostering an independent position in one’s work.

Since 1972, the Brucebo Fine Art Scholarship Foundation of Gotland, Sweden (BFAS) has offered a fine art residency/scholarship to a talented emerging professional Canadian artist providing an inspiring study/work stay in northern Europe on the island of Gotland, located in the Baltic Sea. The Brucebo fine art scholarships hark back to the post-impressionist era in Europe. Two young artists, Caroline Benedicks of Sweden and William Blair Bruce of Hamilton, Canada, meet in Paris, marry and after many years on the European continent, settle on Gotland Island. With the untimely death of William in 1906 and that of Caroline in 1935, the estate, in the early 70’s, created the Brucebo Fine Art (Scholarship) Foundation, an organization promoting island-based cultural history and fine art. To commemorate the unique Swedish-Canadian link of Caroline’s and William’s marriage and impressive artistry, two annual fine art scholarships for younger, professional Canadian artists were established : The Brucebo Fine Art Summer Residency Scholarship and The William Blair Bruce European Fine Art Travel Scholarship.

The Brucebo Fine Art Summer Residency Scholarship funds a three month working residency – starting June 1, 2014 – at the Brucebo studio cottage in the Själsö fishing village, 7 km north of of Visby in Gotland, Sweden. The scholarship covers travel expenses Canada – Gotland (return), the use of the studio cottage, a monthly food stipend plus a small equipment grant. Total approximate value : SEK 30.000.

The William Blair Bruce Travel Scholarship finances a European research sejour, to be undertaken within the next year. The tour is based on an approved Fine Art-related investigative project. Total value: SEK 30.000. As a final part of the ‘Bruce Travel’ the recipient must visit Visby via Stockholm. While in Visby, she/he will give a public lecture sponsored by the Foundation on the investigative theme pursued during her/his recent European travel.

Deadline for applications: January 31, 2015. See the application guidelines and download the application form at www.bruceboscholarships.com. Click on “Apply”.

Kirk Palmer’s work explores the existential nature of human relationships with the world through an exploration of the temporal landscape and sense of place using still and moving images.

In 2005, Palmer began August Shadows, a trilogy of moving image works - Murmur (2006), Hiroshima (2007) and War's End: An Island of Remembrance (2012) - as well as photographic works, including the recent series A Surrounding Trace (2013) and Precious Fragments (2014) exhibited here. Centred upon Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Yakushima, all these works examine how historical events manifest in the present-day physical substance of place, where the pall of the atomic bombings remains a latent, unifying presence.

Palmer has returned to Hiroshima and/or Nagasaki each August as part of an evolving, personal engagement with the people and landscapes of these places devastated by the atomic bombings of World War II. These historical events are irresolvable, unfathomable, beyond comprehension, but it is exactly because of this that Palmer has pursued the awful legacies of nuclear war and its ongoing effects. Consequently, his moving and still image work eschews gratuitous imagery of the war and its after-effects in favour of nuance, not to assuage the horrors but to encourage a contemplative and reflective response from the viewer to the atomic bombing of Japan.

All his work on the subject of the atomic bombings can be understood as an attempt to 'reach' those particular places in time, because as the survivors grow more elderly and frail it is ever more pressing that we do not forget.

Kirk Palmer was born in Northampton, UK and trained at the Royal College of Art in London. Whilst a student he was awarded a scholarship to study in Japan at Kyoto City University of Arts, leading to an exhibition at Kyoto Art Center. He has won and been shortlisted for various art prizes, including prestigious awards from the Conran Foundation and the Elephant Trust. He has exhibited his work nationally and internationally with solo shows in London and Berlin, and group shows including: Anticipation, David Roberts Art Foundation, London; In Our World: New Photography in Britain, Galleria Civica di Modena, Italy; and Natural Wonders: New Art From London, Baibakov Art Projects, Moscow. Palmer’s film Hiroshima will be screened as part of Tate Modern’s Conflict, Time, Photography exhibition. He lives and works in London.

Reporting to the Head of Studio, the Art Department Studio Manager partners closely with the Director of Art and is responsible for managing team members, activities and resources within the Telltale Art Department.

Session supports the creation of new work by giving artists a stipend and approximately two months to use Recess as a studio, exhibition space, or hybridized new grounds. By remaining free and open to the public throughout each Session, this program enables artists to have meaningful interactions with their active audience at every stage of the creative process. Learn more about applying for Session.

APPLY : Recess will accept applications via our application portal through 11:59pm on March 14, 2015. You may read about the application and application process below.

ABOUT RECESS: Recess is an artists’ workspace that is open to the public. Recess facilitates every-day interactions between artists and audiences in order to promote the productive space of the working artist as a site of valuable visual and intellectual interaction. Our endeavors promote critical exposure for the artists we support while fostering an inclusive environment in which artists and the public can engage in a meaningful exchange of art and ideas.

ABOUT SESSION: Artists are given flexible storefront space and resources to realize ambitious projects and Recess remains open to the public at every stage of the project’s development. Though similar to a residency program, Session goes beyond the traditional structure to facilitate interactions between artists and audiences throughout the creative process. We encourage artists to engage with their audience in a manner specific to their creative goals, while using Recess as a studio, exhibition space, stage, and/or experimental platform to generate new work.

Session artists receive an honorarium as well as a project stipend based on the material needs of their Session.
